Last month my family and I went to Las Vegas Nevada, for a short family vacation and so I could teach a workshop at Clay Arts Vegas right before my show went up. Since my son is five we had to stay at Excalibur, it wasn’t my first choice, but when you have a son that dresses up as a knight several times a week you have to stay in a castle if you have the opportunity. Well, it was a bigger hit than we ever thought my Van never wanted to leave, and when we did he was always begging to go back to the castle. We also took him to see the Tournament of Kings, Van had a great time, not even eating one bite of his Cornish hen, and he was so engrossed watching the knights battle each other.

I really enjoyed my workshop at Clay Arts Vegas! Thom Bumblauskas one of the founders of CAV was a spectacular host. I see great things in the future for Clay Arts Vegas!

One of the things CAV did that was different than any show I’ve ever been in. They had Checko Salgado come and take black and white images of my work blow them up to 24” x 36” photographs to hang during the show. Because of the cost of shipping, I only sent smaller pieces to Clay Art Vegas, so it was especially fun to see these giant images of my small vases and salt and pepper shakers blown up to such big proportions.

Checko also took great pictures during the workshop. Usually my workshop pics are just quick shots from my phone and are nothing special. These photographs are amazing. I love how he captured everyone working so hard.

Thank you Clay Arts Vegas especially Thom Bumblauskas and Peter Jakubowski and Thank you Checko Salgado! I had an amazing time. If you are ever in Vegas make sure you stop at Clay Arts Vegas.

As usual I am about a month late in my blog posting. The show is down and CAV has moved on to their next show. It was a grand time! I hope everyone in the workshop enjoyed it as much as I did.

Thanks for stopping by my blog, comments are continually appreciated, and it is always great to hear from everyone.
